does anyone know the status of Danny Mwanga's citizenship? how far away is he? i rate him as highly as Juan Agudelo and hopefully, we can still get him to play for us.
Bocanegra lacks the speed needed to be an ideal left back, but he is talented. His skill set serves him and USMNT better as a CB. Spector is a better midfielder than he is a defender. Replace him on your list with Frank Simek, a true RB.
So the Galaxy without Gonzalez anchoring the backline against the Sounders in the last cup match looked like shit. Honestly it was night and day. We have been known this season for our defense getting us points, but against the Sounders with a Berhalter-Delagarza pairing, it was wretched. Gonzalez is so underrated it is ridiculous.
Given that we have a new coach...everyone's slate is wiped clean and favorites have yet to be made. this is where everyone is at out ground zero and it's good to look at the tools at the new coach's disposal: For this synopsis, players are still given their June 1st, 2014 birthdate and an asterisk denotes that they are born after January 1st, 1989 which makes them eligible for the olympics. What's different is that I have decided to move the crap players into a list of their own just so you see the other options without cluttering up the main player pool, i have split the nationality question mark players into ones that we have a good chance of getting and the ones we do not, and i have got rid of the number rankings...but i did a break if there is a gulf in talent between players (or likelihood to receive a call). If i have missed someone or got something wrong about a player, please let me know.

Alfredo Morales should also be listed under NATIONALITY QUESTION MARKS. He has three options for national team selectio. Actually he never thought about playing for the US until he got invited to camp. He could play for the US-Germany-Peru. He is not Cap-tied to any of them at the moment.
Is Gooch really an "old face"? I think if he starts playing with Sporting he should definitely still be in the picture. He'll be 32 in 2014, that's not too old for a CB.
if he does, it'd be a miracle. i just believe that knee injury ruined one of my all-time favorite players...much like it did, Clint Mathis, DMB, and Cory Gibbs.
A valid concern. Gibbs was a local (So. Fla.) product. I thought he was rhe best defender I had ever seen in U.S. uniform 'til injuries just destroyed his career. I share your concerns regarding Gooch, but am optimistic that Sporting checked him out thoroughly and believed him completely recovered. I don't think thye would have signed him for 3 years otherwise. Curious to soon find out what Jurgen thinks.
I´m very happy with the nomination of Jurgen Klinsmann as the new US coach hope to see the USA team became a superpower in soccer, I´m form Mexico and I´m tired of Mexico being the only team in central and northamerica. Can´t wait to see the US beating mexico hehe! You have potential and really good players, but never had the chance to play, those guys in Germany: Chandler and Fabian Hürzeler are young and are trianing at a hig level, Klinsmann can take them to new levels, Jared Jeffrey, Agudelo, that kid Conor Doyle, lots of young players and Klinsmann is the man to get them ready for competition, he did that with Germany, and now they had a lot of young players in the first Team. Good luck and please crush the mexicans, and the rest of central america they suck at soccer haha
Here is the updated pool as of August 31st (transfer deadline day) and how the pool looks to be forming under Klinsi. Note that a player makes the shortlist based on not being called up yet (unless they're Stuart Holden in which case it's obvious he will be in Klinsi' plans) and player will be placed on the primary list if they have received a call. All the other same factors apply (ex: wc 2014 age, rankings, *=olympic eligible, etc...). Also, note that this will change a lot with the results of the upcoming friendlies.

Thanks for the update. Jack McBean should be under nationality question marks, as Scotland has taken a keen interest in him and he has not open proclaimed loyalty to the US yet.
didn't he play for us in the U-17???? also, with him playing in the US, i would say he's probably our player to lose.

Eleven Bravo, Amazing Job! and Thank you so much for doing this! One question though is should Santino Quaranta still be listed or taken off the list? He's retired but you never know he could change his mind (seems like with his history the retirement might be pretty set). Link: http://espn.go.com/sports/soccer/ne...ted-santino-quaranta-announces-mls-retirement
Um both are listed on Eleven Bravo's list. Hahnemann is the 1st name listed under unrated and Le Toux is listed under Nationality: highly unlikely.
Thanks for the update; one minor correction: Chris Agorsor was waived by the Union and is with RSL now.
Wasn't there a recent article where renken spoke about moving to DM. In his clubs formation it requires a very creative and technical sound player. Just wondering if that move will be permanent and will carry over to his us in the US. Also anyone know why we havn't heard any news about Moises Orrozco? Is he out of the picture? Will he get a call in January?
I'm going to cut my list down in order to display the work that needs to be done going into the first round of WCQ. Note, that the Olympics run through July 25 to Aug 11. The WCQ games are Jun 8 & 12, Sep 7 & 11, and Oct 12 & 16. Our games that take place before the Olympics will be against Antigua and Barbuda and Guatemala. in short, these are the frontrunners to get a call that should get us through just the first two games of this round of WCQ before we can start integrating the new faces into camp. Note that i added a U-23 omit for players that have already been selected by Klinsi (or damn near close to a call-up), but i believe that we would be alright if we left them alone until after the olympics. (2) GOALKEEPERS Lock: Tim Howard Safe Bet: Brad Guzan Work to do: N/A ----- Alternate: Nick Rimando Dark Horse: N/A Slim Chance: David Yelldell, Quentin Westberg, Tally Hall, Matt Pickens, Troy Perkins U-23 Omit: Bill Hamid, Sean Johnson Notes: I say Klinsi should leave Hamid and Johnson to focus on the Olympics. With Guzan and Howard we have two solid reliable goalkeepers that could man the sticks. Rimando would be suitable as a back-up for these two match-ups (4) CENTER BACKS Lock: Carlos Bocanegra Safe Bet: Oguchi Onyewu, Clarence Goodson Work to do: Omar Gonzalez* ------ Alternates: George John*, Geoff Cameron* Dark Horse: Tim Ream, Michael Parkhurst, Zak Whitbread Slim Chance: Brad Rusin, Chad Marshall, Marvell Wynne, Michael Orozco-Fiscal, Matt Besler, Eric Brunner, AJ Soares, Matt Besler U-23 Omit: N/A Notes: in my opinion, Bocanegra, Goodson, and Onyewu will take the reigns into qualifying before the Olympics. January camp will decide who is our next best upcoming central defender between Gonzalez, John, and Cameron. right now, it's a crap shoot, but i'd say Gonzalez has a slight edge. Ream, Parkhurst, or Whitbread could sneak in if they do really well from here to June though. (4) FULL BACKS Lock: Tim Chandler, Steve Cherundolo Safe Bet: N/A Work to do: Daniel Williams, Daniel Potts* ----- Alternates: Jonathan Spector, Eric Lichaj*, Adam Henley* Dark Horses: AJ De la Garza, Zach Loyd, Derrick Williams* Slim Chance: Sean Franklin, Heath Pearce, Edgar Castillo, Corey Ashe, Jonathan Bornstein, Todd Dunivant, Bobby Convey U-23 Omit: N/A Notes: With Lichaj coming off his injury, it's hard to predict his status with the NT...especially, if this Williams guy-who is eligible- might be bumping him from his spot with Villa. Also, Potts and Henley both are immediately turning into strong contenders for spots on the full-team. Note that Potts just won West Ham player of the month as a 17 y/o left back. I'd say given that he should be called up ASAP. Also, where will Daniel Williams play for the USMNT? personally, i think he should be groomed as a fullback given our need there... unless we manage to snag Potts, Henley, and Williams who all turn out to be studs, and then he can slide up to CDM; his more natural position. In addition, both of these players (plus Chandler) will probably be required for qualifiers. So, they'll have a busy summer. Further, AJ De la Garza and Zach Loyd have a chance to prove themselves in the january camp. you may also include Pearce and Parkhurst (as a RB) to the list, as well. they'll be worth watching, but they don't have the chance to slide in there the way AJDLG and ZL do, IMHO. (4) HOLDING/DEFENSIVE CENTER MIDS Lock: N/A Safe Bet: Michael Bradley Work to do: Jermaine Jones, Stuart Holden, Sacha Kljestan ---- Alternates: Maurice Edu, Jose Francisco Torres, Kyle Beckerman Dark Horse: Jeff Larentowicz, Ricardo Clark Slim Chance: Jack Jewsbury, Dax McCarty, Brad Davis U-23 omit: Alfredo Morales, Mikkel Diskerud Notes: Stuart Holden. How will he return? i still believe that if he is healthy that he should be on the roster. He's too valuable. Secondly, this all brings up Torres who Klinsi showed great favoritism towards when he was healthy. He may also sneak on the roster...but with the form Kljestan is in now, i don't see it. Other than that, we need at least one destroyer. i'd go with Jones over Beckerman. I doubt we would need Mix or Morales and let them focus on becoming integral parts of the Olympic team. (4) WITHDRAWN STRIKERS/WINGERS Lock: Clint Dempsey, Landon Donovan Safe Bet: Fabian Johnson Work to do: Brek Shea ---- Alternate: Benny Feilhaber Dark Horse: Graham Zusi Slim Chance: Alejandro Bedoya, Eddie Gaven, Robbie Rogers, Sal Zizzo, Nick LaBrocca, Brad Evans, Chris Pontius, Da Marcus Beasley U-23 omit: Freddy Adu, Josh Gatt, Joe Corona Notes: Johnson needs a few more caps before he is a "Lock." After that, these four are pretty set. Feilhaber could fill in if there is an injury and Zusi needs to perform well in campto be considered. The rest will need to really shine early in MLS to sneak in. I doubt we would need Adu, Gatt, and Corona. I'd let them focus on prepping for the Olympics. (4) CENTER FORWARDS Lock: Jozy Altidore Safe Bet: N/A Work to do: Edson Buddle, CJ Sapong, Juan Agudelo ----- Alternate: Chris Wondolowski Dark Horse: Herculez Gomez, Robbie Findley, Chris Rolfe Slim Chance: Justin Braun, Eugene Starikov, Kenny Cooper, Steve Lenhart, Conor Casey, Charlie Davies, Tommy Heinemann, Mike Magee, Chad Barrett U-23 Omit: Terrence Boyd, Andrew Wooten, Juan Agudelo, Teal Bunbury Notes: If Buddle and Sapong show that they can be trusted enough to face Guatemala and Antigua and Barbuda then i see no point in calling up any more U-23 faces besides Jozy and Agudelo. Besides, if there is a drop-off between Wondo, Gomez, Findley, and Rolfe then it is very minimal. Starting XI: v Antigua and Barbuda --------------Altidore----Buddle---------------- Johnson-----------Dempsey------------Donovan --------------------Jones---------------------- Chandler--------------------------------Cherundolo ------------Bocanegra----Onyewu--------------- ---------------------Howard--------------------- Bench: Guzan, Goodson, Potts, Williams, Holden, Shea, Agudelo *if we get ahead by a couple goals and have an extra sub, i'd go ahead and cap Potts. v Guatemala ---------------------Altidore------------------ Johnson-------------Dempsey------------Donovan --------------Holden----------Bradley---------- Chandler---------------------------------Cherundolo --------------Bocanegra------Onyewu----------- -----------------------Howard------------------- Bench: Guzan, Goodson, Williams, Jones, Kljestan, Shea, Buddle
some kid that is starting to receive a lot of hype out of Aston Villa. i'm just keeping a watch on him now and see how he will progress.
